"Self-Resistance"

A quote chosen from Emerson’s “Self-Reliance on Page 548 at the beginning of the second paragraph he goes on to explain how the civilized man has built a coach in how we have all these materialistic things, beautiful things, and things need for life that we take for granted most of the time. “The solstice he does not observe; the equinox he knows as little; and the whole bright calendar of the year is without a dial in his mind.” The simplest things in life are taken for granted and things that should be seen and observed have now started to gone undone. This relates back to Transcendentalism in a way of idealism, we have these ideal images and concepts of our lives that are not always true. We need to express our ideas use our resources and open our eyes to the world around us. We are humans and we need to start taking advantage of what is around us we need to achieve goals, tasks, and topics in life. There is a spiritual rebellion out there that we need to grasp and take control of, this picture of the solstice is a part of inner spirituality. Something that does not come around often and should be grasped when it does come around, and take a different look and aspect of the world around us. We need to comprehend out desires and spiritual truths launch our ideas and use our resources.
